envsbot v2.5.1

envsbot 2.5.1 is a maintenance release focused on clearer production logging and safer user tracking under concurrent XMPP events. There are no command, configuration, or database schema changes in this release.

Highlights

• Prevent duplicate Creating user log entries when overlapping room-presence or direct-message events discover the same JID at nearly the same time.
• UserManager.create() now reports whether a user was actually created, so only the winning creation path emits the creation log.
• User tracking now uses its own core_plugins.users.tracking logger instead of reusing the roles logger.
• XMPP startup logging now says Connection initiated. Starting event loop..., accurately distinguishing transport initiation from a fully established XMPP session.

Logging cleanup

• Centralized generic plugin lifecycle logging in the plugin manager.
• Removed redundant Plugin loading, Plugin loaded, and Plugin unloaded messages from Ducks, Karma, Poll, IdleRPG, Birthday Notify, Admin, and Reminder lifecycle paths.
• Kept plugin-specific operational messages where they carry useful information, such as XKCD background task startup/shutdown.
• Clarified IdleRPG event pruning from retained event row(s) to expired event row(s).

Reliability and tests

• Added regression coverage for concurrent MUC and direct-message user creation logging.
• Added coverage for the clarified XMPP connection lifecycle message.
• Updated plugin lifecycle tests for the centralized logging behavior.
• Full project quality checks pass cleanly.

Compatibility

• No configuration changes required.
• No command changes.
• No database migration required.
• Requires envs-xmpp >=1.7.2,<2.0.
• Python 3.12, 3.13, and 3.14 remain supported.
